Buggin you

Ahhh summer...so glad its finally here!! Ive been enjoying this past week with my family. I dont think we've been home other than to sleep any day this past week including this week so far!LOL! I wanted to share a few cards with you over the next couple of days I made on my on again off again blogging/stamping this past year. Bless you if you still visit me!LOL! Its been a year for me but things are starting to look up so Im happy for that!

I came across Bugaboo stamps one day while going through blogs (I think its was Jeanie aka Spotted Chick)and they had this adorable ladybug image as a freebie. I was too excited! I wanted to play with the fun Twitterpated dp I only used once last year so I colored the image to match the dp and pulled out this ribbon I picked up at Micheals. When I finished coloring the image with copics I decided to try out grass again and was pretty happy until my g28 copic bled a few times. I was so mad but loved how everything else turned out so I decided to just keep the image. I sponged the edges with the closest ink I had to the cloud piece of dp but its still more off than I like. I also used a sketch that of course I didnt get this posted in time for and have no idea which sketch it was now. Im so looking forward to this summer and getting back into stamping and blogging and commenting!LOL! AND actually doing challenges on time!!! Have a great day!

Love the ladybug theme carried throughout, the fabulous sponging to make that image really shine and the vivid colors! Fabulous piece (and hey, I only get a chance to read blogs about once every 2 weeks so that's for waiting so long for my comments!)
